The California High-Speed Rail Authority released a video on Friday detailing the Palmdale to Los Angeles sections of the transport project. The video—roughly four minutes long—provides highlights and key stats about the route, which consists of around 30 miles of tunnels and is part of a long-awaited high-speed megaproject years in the making. The route will begin at the Palmdale station—to be located next to the existing Palmdale Transportation Center.
Trains leaving Palmdale will travel at grade around Una Lake. Moving towards Angeles National Forest, trains will move underground into the first of four tunnel sections on the segment, the first of which spans 12 miles. The route will eventually emerge at the Hansen Dam Spreading Grounds before following the preexisting Metrolink Union Pacific Corridor toward the future high-speed station at the Hollywood Burbank Airport. Newsweek has contacted the California High-Speed Rail Authority for comment outside of usual business hours
